  • Notes 
    • Worked in Paris as a building inspector. After he married Marie, they lived at 185 Rue Du Faubourg Poissonnier in the 9th Arrondissment. That's were Suzanne was born.

      Immigrated to Canada via the U.S., arriving Boston on June 18, 1903 and then travelling on to Montreal. Settled in Cranbrook, B.C. where his two sons were born. Then moved to Washington. Died in a mining accident in the Tamarak Mine

      Note: found birth record on FHL film # 1123217. Searched 1873-1877 and did not find any siblings during that period.

      From the 1914 Annual Report of the Mining Industry of Idaho, page 13,

      At the Tamarack & Custer Consolidated Mine, on December 23rd, Lee Mouchett, a married man, 40 years of age, employed as a shoveler, several months on this particular job, came to his death by falling five floors into a waste corral. The victim had taken up two floor planks near the over-hanging wall of the stope, making a hole between the timber sets 10 inches by 20 inches, for the purpose of dumping waste into the corral. He was a capable, well known, well liked workman. There were a number of men working near him, but none of them saw him go into the hole, and the only conclusion that could be arrived at was that he might have been rolling a small boulder into the opening and a ragged edge of it caught his glove and pulled him off his balance into the wide end of the opening. He was so badly injured by the fall he died in two hours after being removed.
